"PLAY ON THE SQUARE"
(By Ernest F. Jones.)
Play on the square with each other that's what you should do. This writer means our good colored people. A square has four sides, I guess you know that, if you don't, well you had better get that old worn out arithmetic and be trying to learn it—good idea don't you think so? This writer thinks it is. Play on the square that's what to do and if you do that you will have to treat each other right. Do you know that? if you don't it's time you were knowing—use your head, God gave it to you to use. Play on the square—you, say you are for your race, that's what you should be—the same hue will be seen in your countenance. Stand be each other. Do you see it that way? No other way to see it.
Loyalty won the late war. Uncle Sam stood by France; you can win your rights, stand by your brother. You say you should have your rights and this writer says so too—A house against itself cannot stand—read between the lines; think you can do that? If you can't, U better learn how to read. You 'holler' that the other fellow treats you so mean, and he should not do that—you say he shouldn't, this writer says so too. you treat each other mean and you should not do that.
Get busy playing on the square and not so busy trying to keep your folks down; as they try to climb the ladder of success. Some colored people begin to climb, you say he is getting too high and must come down, "think they're better'n me, I'll show 'em they ain't." That is what you say, isn't it? You most certainly do. Bad thing to do. You who can't climb, try to keep the other fellow from climbing. You pull at his coat, 'till down the ladder he comes. You don't know anything and you smile because you think he is down on your level. Some of you get high on the ladder and see another fellow climbing and you get jealous—mustn't know as much as "me," and push him on down.
Think you are going to win that way don't you? Well, you must have thought it because you most certainly are not.
A prize-fighter hits below the belt and loses on a soul. Don't keep trying to keep the other fellow from climbing; push and pull, help him up the grade. Be like a cube, have six square sides. If you want to win, that is what you'll have to do—Play on the square. Buy potatoes from the store that your people run; buy pork chops from the butcher that has your complexion. You say white people should treat colored people right, this writer says so too—this writer also says colored people should treat colored people right. Can you do that? You most certainly must.
You know the old saying: "Clean up your own house before attempting to clean the other fellow's. Can you see through that? Thin as clear water, good eyes ought to see. Parents treat their own children badly, what do you think the other fellow will do? Think it over; see if you understand. Play on the square folks—This writer says play square; then you will win—NOT UNTIL
ENDEAVORS TO HALT EREC TION OF SCHOOL
WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 26 In a petition signed by Mrs. Daniel Murray charges are made that the Commissioners are about to spend $250,000 of the school appropriation fund to erect the new John F. Cook School on a dangerous site.
According to Mrs. Murray the ground has been recently filled and in wet weather is flooded to within a few inches below surface; the ground will not support a sixteen-room building; it is removed from the center of population for the district from which it draws its pupils; the children will be obliged to cross two car tracks to reach the school; and that the ground next to the John F. Cook School is available, the District owning three lots there and for others adjoining being for sale at a reasonable figure. Mrs. Murray points out the recent collapse of the school building in Baitimore and declares that the proposed site for the new John F. Cook School is quite similar.
Calvary Baptist Church REV. J. W. HAYES, Pastor.
Sunday School was well attended on last Sunday morning; we were glad to welcome our Supt., Mrs. J. W. Hayes who has been ill, back into our midst.
Just before the Sunday morning services, we listened with much interest to a report by Mr. H. T. Sims, of the Kansas Baptist State Convention meeting held at Kansas City, Kansas. Much valuable information was brot' to us along the lines of Missions and the wonderful program that is being outlined by our leaders for the work in Kansas.
"The Scripture lesson read for the morning services by Rev. J. F. Greene from 1st Div. of Pauls.
Our pastor selected as his text the 3rd and 4th verses of 3rd chapter of Isaiah; using as a subject: "The Church In The Wilderness." A great, spiritual sermon, that set before us more clearly than ever the establishment and place of the church of Jesus Christ in the midst of nations. The church shall be established in the last days. After all else have been tried and have failed in the life of the nations, there would be a realization of the fact that the church is the only eternal institution in time and eternity. The church has a permanent place and that its immovable referring to principles for which the church stands established in the mountain of God; and is the highest peak in human society. The church is urged to come up on the mountain of God and create an atmosphere of prayer; and the church should have the highest place in our lives. To serve as a peacemaker, the church should be made up of peacemakers and we should follow in the footsteps of the Author of Peace—Christ. Our hearts were made to burn within us while he talked to us; one addition to the church following this great message.
6 o'clock we again assembled for the B. Y. P. U. Very interesting meeting each Sunday and the enthusiasm is growing. The Social Group was again the winning group followed by the Willing Workers. (Note-I didn't get the night message.) Misses Leola Broadus and Essie Geary of Parroons who were here attending the State Teachers' Association, were the house guests of Mr. and Mrs. P. H. Walton on St. Francis; in whose honor they entertained on Saturday evening. Mrs. W. C. Neely is ill at her home on Blaine.
Miss Nettle Fay Oliver had as her dinner guests on Friday evening, Misses Leola Broadus and Essie Geary of Parsons, and Miss Mattie Scott.
We are looking forward with much interest to the arrival in our city next week of Dr. E. W. Perry, the great Gospel Preacher of Oklahoma City, who will conduct a 10 days' revival meeting at Calvary.

ARE YOU AWARE? BY E. M. BARNES.
That it is the empty wagon that makes a lot of noise? Likewise, the empty headed person is noisy.
That the fellow who is always wearing a sign heralding his moral virtues is as crooked as a swimming snake? He claims right so that people won't notice his wrongs.
He who thinks most, antagonizes less; but the individual who is always crossing some-one doesn't think at all.
That the certain result of worry is first a loss of a clear mind, and then onward to an untimely grave? It is really ally to worry and stew over conditions. It does not do any good If you can help the condition, go ahead and help it leaving off the useless worry; if you can't help the condition what good does it do to worry? Just go ahead and keep out the gray hairs and live a long time.
That very few people now-a-days can be trusted? This condition has been caused largely by those of our own group who occupy leading places among us. When shall we develop those trustworthy leaders? That kind of integrity, next door and akin to infailibility. The race is waiting for that kind of leaders.
Adjournment.
Southwestern District To Meet In Hutchinson
The Quarterly Board Meeting of the Southwestern District Association is called to meet in Hutchinson, Nov. 14-15. Moderator Hayes is asking that every auxiliary do more in every way than before. He especially wants to meet the best workers in the different churches so they can help him map out a program that will stimulate the work. Our obligations are growing and responsibilities likewise are growing, so to put over the program for the Master, we must organize and do some tangible work.
The President of the Sunday School department is asking that you work on this plan:—Make your constitutional allowance of $3.00; push your special effort money with plenty of life and then have the teachers to have class rallies and the names and amounts of each class will be turned "n" to the secretary of the Sunday School to be forwarded with report from the Sunday School, thereby letting the district see the strength of the classes in each school.
Do this at once so you can make a full report.
Don't forget the date is Nov. 16 and 15, and every organization in the District is expected to have a messenger present or a full report. The Moderator is counting on you.
NEGRO INVITED TO ATTEND MASTER PRINTERS' BANQUET
(Preston News Service)
PITTSBURGH, PA.; Oct. 26—Because of his marvelous genius as a creative designer in aircraft printing, John, L. Clark, 29 Gilmore St. received a special invitation to attend a banquet given last Friday night by master printers in Western Pennsylvania in honor of Norman T. A. Munder, president of the National Association of Direct Mail Advertising. Mr. Clark is advertising manager of the Strait-Tex Chemical Company and assistant design and layout man for the MacGregor Cutler Printing Company. His creative printcraft art has attracted national attention.
OFFICERS FIND MAN HAS DOZEN GUNS IN HOME
MEMPIIS, TENN, Oct. 25—"I am ready to defend my home if Ku Klux Klan ever comes to see me" was the calm statement of Lorenza Holmes, aged 25 years, of Marlon, Ark., when officers asked him why he had so many shot guns in his home.
According to the police, Holmes was seen several times in the streets here with a package that looked so much like a gun that it was thought advisable to secretly investigate what he was doing with them. Two detectives were ordered to shadow Holmes' movements. They followed him to his home. They had a "John Doe" warrant and searched his home resulting in the discovery of a dozen shot guns and several pistols as well as a large quantity of ammunition.
He showed the officials that he had purchased the guns. He also informed them that he had been collecting these fine guns for the past 10 years. The officers claim that Holmes has some of the finest makes of shot guns. Holmes is said to be a well respected man in his community.
NOTICE!!
My Dear Brethren:
For our pastors and leaders not to "put-out" and "collect-in" the envelopes sent them, and send the money to Dr. A. M. Townsend, By Thursday, November 1st will greatly endanger pushing work on the "Morris Memorial" building--Our Publishing House.
I have just passed the place and 26 men are pushing the work as fast as they can. The whole Building Committee, with Secretary Townsend, are making the effort of a life-time to have the $50,000.00 on November 1st, and they are counting on you. Join us in this stupendous effort and report. WE MUST NOT FAIL.
Yours in His Service.

NEGROES WIN PRIZES AT EXHIBIT
(Preston News Service)
CONWAY, ARK. Oct. 26-Exhibits entered in the Arkansas State Fair at Little Rock, by Negro farmers and club members of Faulkner County won high honors. The exhibit brought forth first prize for county exhibit; second place on the corn exhibit as well as sweet potatoes.
According to E. T. Mattison, county agent, the products entered at Little Rock, were taken largely from the exhibits shown at the Faulkner county fair by Negro farmers here recently. Mr. Mattison says that he is evidence that Negro farmers have ceedingly interested in this as it is an made great progress in this county; and have shown conclusively that agricultural conditions can be improved and made more profitable. He declares that less than a score of young Negro men have migrated from Faulkner county during the past six years. In fact, he states, many Negroes have come into the county and settled on small farms, which they have developed very creditably.
Rev. B. C. Rannavalona Promoted.
Whenever ability is the standard for a position, and Rev. B. C. Ran navalona wants the position, he gets it. He has held many honorable positions since being in the city, and still he climbs. Just a few days ago he was appointed as assistant cashier of the Internal Revenue Department of the United States, where thousands of dollars of the government money must be looked after. Knowing his ability as we do, we know he will make good.
CHICAGO UNDERTAKER VISITS MOTHER
(Praetor News Service)
PITTSBURGH, PA. Oct. 26—Charles S. Jackson, a prominent undertaker of Chicago, spent several days here visiting his mother, Mrs. Charles Jackson, aged 88 years, and his sister, Mrs. Elizabeth Mangham, who is also a successful undertaker in Pittsburgh, operating two establishments here.
MRS. SARAH ROSS AGED 101, DIES
(Preston News Service)
ARKADELPHIA, ARK. Oct. 26—Mrs. Sarah Ross, said to be aged 101 years, the oldest resident of Clark County, died at her home near Hollywood, last Sunday. Mrs. Ross was born at Clear Springs, this county, and lived here all her life. Her son, Eaf Ross, is said to be one of the wealthiest Negro planters in Arkansas.
Infant Found In Old Well.
An infant was taken from an old well on Washington between 11th and 12th streets by officers last Wednesday night. This is an awful affair and the details should be found out and the cruel hearts should be made to bleed. The doctor or nurse or some foul hand is not a friend to humanity, who should stand for such and they too should be taught to protect humanity, and safeguard society. Whatever the disgrace, the child was not responsible and the innocent should be protected; if not by loving parents, it should be, by the strong arm of the law.

Splendid services at St. John Bantist Church, Sunday. At 11 a.m., the pastor delivered a strong, practical german from this text: "Not by Might, nor by power, but by my spirit; saith the Lord of Host." Zech. 4:6; Theme: "Touched by the Holy Spirit." Not by power of intellect or science, but by my power of the Holy Spirit can we hope to come in touch with God. Attendance was good. Many valuable thoughts were given. Sunday School was alive and well attended.
Rev. Ross, an evangelist who happened to be in the city, preached a soul stirring sermon at 8 p. m., text "Adam where are thou." Using as a subject; God Calling After Man." As God called Adam in the days of old He is calling men today for a purpose. He is calling for clean lives, and purified hearts. A splendid sermon. Pastor Williams motored to Culver, Kansas, Sunday afternoon, where

St. Paul Notes.
At the 11 a.m. services the subject of the sermon by Rev. R. L. Pope, was selected from the hymn, "Jesus Lover of My Soul." He related the origin of the song, that was written by Charles Wesley in 1740 when he was seated at his desh, a bird flew in pursued by a hawk, seeking protection, and he was inspired to write the words that have reached human hearts throughout the ages. He told how Jesus now stands as our refuge, our helper at all times and in every need.
Sunday School had a fine attendance with an increase over last Sunday. There was an interesting review of the lesson. Senior No.1 Mr. Earl Johnson teacher, was banner class.
At 8 p. m., another splendid sermon was delivered by the pastor: "The Nearness of Salvation." That too many people today have the false impression that God is far away, up beyond the stars, and salvation can only be obtained through a trying ordeal, is not the teachings of the Bible, for salvation is now at your door; of the many instances recorded when peace of soul was found right at hand; The Eunuch found salvation out on the highway; Lydia by the riverside; the jailor in prison and the thief on the cross.
The Ladies' Aid Society held their meeting Wednesday afternoon; a good report was made from the results of their cooked food sale held on last Saturday.

Corner of 11th and Mosley.
Rev. H. H. Edmond, Pastor.
At the St. Matthew C. M. E. Ch., last Sunday afternoon, those present; (which was a goodly number) witnessed a record breaker. This service was in the hands of the ministers and representatives from every church present showed the very high esteem in which the pastor Rev. Edmond is held. As master of ceremony, Rev. Walton Brown is the man who has an eye for the business. The sermon by Rev. R. L. Pope, was in every way appropriate for the occasion; we are sure he gave us some of the best in the store-house, because some of his members have already accused him. Another feature which especially impressed us was the broadheartedness of Mr. P. B. Bates, only representative from New Hope (not yet having a pastor in the city) but who would not have the cause represented fall short. More such leaders need be enlisted in the cause. Several spoke, all were good. Rev. Edmond left for conference in Richmond, Mo., Tuesday evening, wearing a smile that his coworkers had stood by him.
G. L. A. CLUB NOTES.
The G. L. A. Club met Tuesday afternoon with Mrs. E. Reed as hostess. It was Domestic Science Day, and the quotations were favorite cooking recipes given by the members in response to roll call. The outlined program for the afternoon was the demonstration of doughnuts, by Mrs. Ora Carter and various talks by the members. A nice luncheon was served. They also had the pleasure of having some of their recent new members, present. Next week they will meet with Mrs. L. C. McCullough.
Paola, Kansas, News.
At The Mt. Olive Baptist Church, Sunday, services were well attended both morning and evening. The pastor, Rev. J. A. Rucker, preached a wonderful sermon at both services. The subject Sunday morning was: "We are forgiven our debts as we forgive or debtors." The evening service was for the children; subject: "Remember thy Creator in the days of thy youth." Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock, the Mt. Olive Baptist Mission Circle held its monthly program as follows:
Prayer by Deacon John Dillard; Solo, Mrs. Alice McPherson; Scripture Reading, Rev. J. A. Rucker; Solo, Mrs. Beaulah Auston. Topic discussed: "Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful." Topic was opened by the President, Mrs. Fannie Rucker, then discussed by all. There was a number of interesting thoughts brought out and the final decision was that Christians should not dance nor play cards. Silver offering was taken. Adjourn. Mrs. Beaulah Vantree entertained the Mt. Olive Baptist Mission Circle last Friday afternoon at her homes, 406 West Miami St., with a five course luncheon. There were 21

Walsen, Colorado Notes
Sunday was a high day at New Hope Baptist Church. We thought our pastor Rev, C. R. Bruster would be too tired to preach as he had preached so hard all the week at Lester, in the revival. S. S., at 9:45 then we had prayer services 30 minutes. The pastor took for his subject the first chapter of Acts, 8th verse. But ye shall receive power after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you and ye shall be witnesses unto me; and we who are witnesses, know how to be a witness.

KANSAS BAPTIST HOLD SESSION
Thirty-Second Annual Session, Missionary Baptist Convention and W. H. & F. M. Convention, Held Great Session in Kansas City, Kansas, Oct. 9-14, 1923.
(Continued from last issue) FRIDAY-Morning Session.
The Convention enjoyed a spiritual devotion conducted by Mesdames Emma Gaines, Kaw Valley District and L. V. Halm. Northeastern. The Symposium—Central Baptist Seminary and Summer School: 1. "The Need of a Seminary;" by Rev. A. W. Ross. 2. "Its Needs;" by Dr. J. H. Garnett. 3. "Its Extension Work;" by Rev. C. B. Burton. 4. "How To Finance It;" by Rev. H. B. Howlett. 5. "Advertisement—Jubilee Chorus;" Rev. G. N. Jackson. 6. "The Summer School as a Dynamo;" by Dr. W. A. Bowren. These speakers, though limited to ten minutes, were very logical and convincing in their talks. Dr. J. E. East preached a powerful sermon at 12:00.
After a warm devotion by Rev. P. H. Smith and W. E. Stewart, this was quite a business session; winding up with an intellectual treat by Dr. J. H. Garnett, the dean of Central Baptist Theological Seminary. (Continued in next issue.)
